SANDS FROM SANDY.
E'MilO-Zip'' on Things Social an
General.

General.
Mr.. Henry Marriott is very much
better.
The Office and assay rooms at the
Mingo are without an exception the
finest in this Territory.
Mr.. Wells Clarke has returned from
his Eastern trip. He looks hearty and
appears good-natured-signs that the trip
was pleasant one.
Bishop Holman's ideas of religion and
business don't conincide with those Of
his more fanatical right and left hand
would-be counselors, who are, therefore,
working for official lead, and the general
impression is that they will get it.
Yesterday the shareholders in the
Canal-Ditch were out cleaning the ditch
that conveys the water into town. They
took keg of beer out with them and
without the least difficulty cleaned it out
as well as the ditch.
Mrs. DR.. Armstrong will be with her
husband in Sandy during this week, at
the end of which she will return to Wan
ship, where she is engaged as teacher.
The Sandy sinners are to have saliva
ton offered them through the instru-
mentality OF Rev. Peoples, who is soon to
locate there as the resident minister.
Mrs. George Decker has been suffering
with an acute attack of tonsilitis. Yes
terday DIR. Armstrong lanced the tonsil,
and Mrs. IS improvement was instantly
noticed.
The Sandy Coop. sells Gentle goods
for the reason that the Mormon mer-
chants at Salt Lake would not give the
concern credit for stock of goods to start
with.
The Sandy Coop. sign is held up by
three large iron braces. 1t is thought
that these were put up in the advent of
an angel of the Lord making a nocturnal
visit to look for the All-seeing eye, he
would find the sign strong enough to
hold him up when he lit on it.
The PIONEER MILLS.
GLOW is business about the Pioneer
Mills?" inquired THE. DEMOCRAT reporter
of Mr.. A. j. Gushing, the genial, gentle
manly superintendent OF R. Mackintosh's
Pioneer Sampling Mills.
''For this time of year we are doing
very well. In another month we shall
be doing about as much as we can. Come
with me and look at our late improve
ments made to the mill"
The reporter followed Mr.. Cushing to
the works and had the pleasure of view
ing sampling mill second to no other
in the Rocky Mountains.
The mill proper is 120X30 feet with sew
eral large sheds hundreds of feet long.
Recently there has been built an addition
measuring 40x3Q feet. The kiln for dry
ing ores has been remodeled; the whole
mill overhauled, new floors have been
put down and other improvements made
that will facilitate the handling of the
immense amount of ore that goes through
the mill everyyea
A set of Colonel Wallis rolls have been
put in and they work like charm. Mr..
Gushing speaks in high praise of the
rolls, excelling for milling purpose, every
machine he has seen in more than
eleven years experience in the sampling
business.
AT SCOTT K ANDERSON'S,
Everything indicates an exceptionally
good summers work. Eleven men are
now employed, but before long the force
will be increased. Mr.. J. II. Temples is
the agent at Sandy and right wide
awake business man too.
The Mingo smelter is running but one
stack out of the four. The other three
will be started up shortly. The four
stacks have a capacity of forty tons, and
when the whole works are in full blast,
nearly $50 men are employed IT'S !
worth ones while to visit the Mingo and |
see the immense concern when every
thing is in full running order.
The ores worked by the three estab- |
lishments mentioned above come from
Bingham, Tintic and Stockton, Utah,
and from Nevada, Idaho and Montana
as well. Everybody feels confident that
the coming summer will be good one to |
mining interests, and are therefore pre-
pared to be benefited by it.
Yesterday when THE DEMOCRAT ar
rived III. 2. Johnson took dozen on his |
arm and went out on the streets in regu-
lar newsboy style, crying: Here's THE
SALT LAKE Democrat; Sandy news; all |
about Jonson being jerked up before the |
bishop: only five cents" In a little |
while he sold out, Mormons and Gentiles |
buying. H. P. is a dandy.
